The ugly concubine is all over the city, the prince is blind

Chapter 274

Thinking of Huang Pu Xize staying and taking off his clothes in front of him, Shen Jinyan felt unbearable now, and said helplessly, "My lord, you should find Chu Qing in."

"Okay, I'll go to the study first. After you wash up, come and find me in the study. We'll have breakfast together then."

"My lord, go and do your work first, I'll come to see you later." Shen Jinyan said with a smile.

Huang Pu Xize got up and left. After a while, Chu Qing came over. With her help, Shen Jinyan quickly cleaned up, and simply asked Chu Qing to go to the study with the food box.

Accompanying Huang Pu Xize to finish the meal in the study, a while later, Chuqing brought an invitation card.

The invitation was sent by someone sent by Huang Pu Ziling, saying that the end of the year is approaching, and the Qionghua Banquet a few months ago was not enjoyed by everyone due to special reasons. Today, she hosted a banquet to entertain everyone at the Biyun Villa outside the imperial city. Sincerely invite her, the emperor's aunt, to go with her.

It is also said that there is a plum blossom forest in Biyun Mountain Villa, which is the earliest place where plum blossoms bloom in the six cities of the four countries. After people have seen it, the day when the plum blossoms will bloom will be tomorrow. At that time, hundreds of plum blossoms of different colors will bloom together. Spectacular.

Please note that Huang Pu Xize was originally invited, but he said that he knew that Huang Pu Xize had a lot of things to do every day and didn't have the time to spare. In addition, most of the people attending the banquet this time were women, so there was no invitation.

He also said that not only the daughters of the ministers in the court were going to the banquet today, but some were also well-known wealthy ladies in the imperial city. If she didn't go, it would be disrespecting her face as a princess, and she hoped that she would become the emperor's aunt For the sake of the royal status, I can go there, a simple place to town, even if I have a cup of tea, I can leave immediately.

"It's worth not going to such a boring banquet."

"My lord, after all, Huangpu Ziling is the princess of Huangpu Kingdom. Even if I don't give her face, I still want to give face to the current emperor. After all, the limelight is hot now, and with the few sensational things we made outside It's a big deal, if I don't invite her, when she returns to the palace, she will definitely act coquettishly with the current emperor, and she will definitely say that I am defiant. Instead of giving others a chance to blackmail me, why don't you take the initiative to take a look, she What kind of tricks are they playing?"

"Since you have made up your mind, then go." Huang Pu Xize said dotingly, and after thinking about it, he said, "Chuqing's martial arts are low, so let her stay in the palace to take care of things. When you go back home, bring her and Gu Miaoyu with you, both of them know martial arts, and I will let other guards secretly protect you."

"My lord, you don't need to be so troublesome. With your prestige, your lord, they dare not really do anything to me."

Looking at the smiling Shen Jinyan, Huang Pu Xize raised his hand and scratched her nose, frowned and said in displeasure: "I think you have lived so comfortably these few days in the mansion that you don't know The hearts of the people outside the mansion are treacherous, so it is so-called preparedness, because of Qiao Jinling's incident, Linger's target for you is very obvious, and Hua Yuerong has also entered the imperial city two days ago, they also met yesterday, today's matter is very serious. It is obviously a game set up for you, I don't want you to go, but you insist on going, since you are thinking about me in the court, then I am also responsible for your safety."

Huang Pu Xize said it was for her safety, so Shen Jinyan didn't care that it would be too grandiose to go out with two maids, so he nodded and agreed, and stopped talking, and said something to Huang Pu Xize after attending the banquet If you just go back to the mansion, you hurried out of the study.

After walking for a certain distance, feeling the gloomy air around him getting stronger, Shen Jinyan turned his head and glanced at Chu Qing who was following behind, and said angrily: "Chu Qing, don't be unhappy, what the prince said is also reasonable, Although you have served behind me for a long time, your martial arts is always a weak point. It's not that I don't take you with me when I go out, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to protect you at critical times, but you will be injured instead. Where will I go then? Find such a smart person to do things for me."

"I thought it was the concubine who despised me." Chu Qing said with an aggrieved face.

"What a silly girl, I can even keep the witty words and Baiyu by my side, how can I despise you, the person who has been with me from the beginning, don't be sullen there, you go and call the witty words and Baiyu over now , tell them to bring clothes and headgear that show my identity to the gate, and, when I come back later, I want to see the latest developments in the imperial city."

Seeing that she also had a task, Chu Qing replied in a low voice, and trotted to the yard to call Bai Yu and Gu Miaoyu.

Seeing her running away, Shen Jinyan walked directly towards the gate.

Not long after, Gu Miaoyu and Bai Yu also came out, carrying bundles in their hands, and saluted to Shen Jinyan's blessed body one after another, and then one lifted the curtain of the carriage, and the other helped Shen Jinyan get into the carriage.

The carriage was walking on the official road, and there were various shouts outside the carriage. Shen Jinyan lifted the curtain and took a look, then looked away again, and then asked Gu Miaoyu who was beside him, "Miaoyu, I'm going back to the imperial city." It's been quite a while, since the last exchange of letters, I haven't written to your young master, and I haven't visited him since I came back. How is your young master during these days in the imperial city? "

"Returning to the princess, the young master has not looked very good since he came back. Although the young master is well-read and talented, he is extremely displeased with dealing with people who have been influenced by interests all the year round in the officialdom, so much so that he When dealing with people in the officialdom, I couldn't bear it several times, but I couldn't bear my temper. I was humiliated by those officials several times. In the end, although Princess Mengling helped solve the matter, the young master was divided. I am not happy, because Princess Ling always uses this as an excuse to ask the young master to go out for tea, the so-called short-handed and short-mouthed, the young master has no choice but to accept the invitation after rejecting it several times."

Hearing Gu Miaoyu's words, Bai Yu couldn't help but frowned, didn't this clearly show Mr. Qiao's presence.

"Jin Ling once said that the Qiao family is deeply rooted. Whether it is property or people, it is involved in the four countries and six cities. When I destroyed Yuncheng that day, the Qiao family's property should also be destroyed. Now, the war is about to break out, and the Qiao family is a big family. People, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a mountain of gold and silver, not to mention that the Qiao family is still in the business of food and has its own farmland. It is inevitable that today's situation will be caused. In order to support the entire Qiao family, Jin Ling must also be with these people. The people in court Zhou Xuan, speaking of it, this matter is also my trouble for him."

"Princess, I didn't mean what I said just now. Although I didn't follow you during the years when the young master traveled abroad, Brother Lin also told me about the young master's absence. The young master has never been close to women. I just I will tell you that, Wangfei, because you are special in the eyes of the prince, I just think, if you have time, Wangfei, you can go and see the prince."

As soon as Gu Miaoyu's words fell, Bai Yu, who couldn't stand it anymore, said coldly, "Miaoyu, although the princess calls Mr. Qiao your son, strictly speaking, don't forget that your current master is the princess. Don't worry about it." All towards Young Master Qiao."

"I didn't, I just—"

Knowing that she was in the wrong, Gu Miaoyu finally didn't say any more, she stared at Shen Jinyan, saw that she was expressionless and didn't know what she was thinking, so she buried her head even lower.

"Princess, I'm sorry, I know I just said something wrong."

"Don't take it to heart, I don't care." Shen Jinyan said in a deep voice, his eyes fell on Baiyu, after thinking for a while, he said: "Baiyu, don't say such witty words, if that person is the prince at this time, you might They will also say let me take a look, each is his own master, this is not wrong, but I don't want you to start internal disputes because of such small things, today I brought you out and didn't bring Chuqing out because you treat me It is useful, it can help me, and if you really want to make trouble, I won't bring you out again after this, do you understand?"

"Understood." Gu Miaoyu and Bai Yu said in unison.

"After today is over, I will find some time to see Jin Ling. You don't need to mention this matter, especially in front of the prince. When the prince starts an unknown fire, it will be you who will suffer. "Shen Jinyan reminded.

"Thank you, Princess, for reminding me." Gu Miaoyu said obediently.

A low acknowledgment was regarded as a response, and Shen Jinyan felt a little tired for no reason.

"It's still some distance away from Biyun Villa. I'll take a nap first. When I get there, you guys are waking me up."

After saying that, Shen Jinyan leaned against the wall of the carriage and fell asleep, while Gu Miaoyu next to him covered her with a thin quilt thoughtfully.

Because of the bumpy road, Shen Jinyan didn't really fall asleep, and naturally knew what Gu Miaoyu was doing.

The moment the carriage stopped at Biyun Villa, Shen Jinyan was clear in his heart, but he didn't wake up directly.

She came to this banquet today to give Huang Pu Ziling face, but it does not mean that she has to be manipulated by others, not to mention that her current status is not what it used to be, she is also the Ninth Princess, so she cannot be sent around at will.

"Bai Yu, why doesn't the Ninth Princess get out of the carriage?"

Facing Qing Yu's angry questioning, Bai Yu replied unhurriedly, "The princess told me before going to bed that when she wakes up, she will enter Zhuangzi. Please go back and tell Princess Ling that my family The concubine is not feeling well, and she finally fell asleep at this moment, we slaves don't dare to wake up the master."

"Bai Yu, this is the third time Princess Ling asked me to come out and urge the Ninth Princess to quickly enter the Zhuangzi, and then to have a banquet, but you stopped me many times. You must know that I thought you were the maid of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, and you are deeply loved by the Ninth Prince. For the sake of being polite to you, you don't want to toast or eat fine wine."

"Toast instead of fine wine, whisper, you tell me what you want?"

"Simple, didn't you just say that you didn't dare to wake up the Ninth Princess? As long as you get out of the way now, I will do it myself."

"It's so simple, so please go ahead." Bai Yu shrugged indifferently and walked quickly to the side.

Seeing how savvy she was, he snorted softly and walked quickly towards the carriage.

Ordinary people call someone, at most they call out a few words outside the carriage, but in the end they climbed into the carriage in a daze.

Because Qingyu's back was facing Baiyu, Baiyu couldn't see the movements in her hands clearly, so Qingyu quietly clamped a poisoned silver needle between her fingers, thinking that after opening the curtain later, Finding the right opportunity, he stuck the poisonous silver needle on Shen Jinyan's body.

"Ninth Concubine, my princess invites—"

While speaking, Qingyu went to lift the curtain, and the moment her hand touched the curtain, Gu Miaoyu, who had been staying inside without speaking, shot directly, grabbed her hand, twisted it slightly, and heard a rattling sound. a sound.
